Ingredients

1 pound Sea Scallops around 10-12 scallops
5 strips of thin bacon sliced in half lengthwise
1/2 tablespoon oil
Salt and Pepper to Taste
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 1/2 tablespoons parmesan cheese grated

Instructions

Start by preheating your air fryer to 350 degrees.
In a bowl add your scallops, followed by oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Then toss well to evenly coat the raw scallops.
Now take your bacon and cut them in half lengthwise.
Wrap a piece of your raw bacon around the seasoned scallops. Repeat until you have all your scallops wrapped. Feel free to secure with a toothpick to ensure the bacon stays on.
Now place your wrapped scallops on a parchment lined pan that fits into your air fryer.
Cook for 4 minutes, and then flip over and cook an additional 4-5 minutes.
Now open up the air fryer and top your bacon wrapped scallops with parmesan cheese, and continue to cook for another 1-2 mintues.
Serve your bacon wrapped scallops fresh and hot with your favorite sides or serve them up as a hearty appetizer.
